Yan Di had many, many children, but he had one favorite, Jing Wei. She was very beautiful and loved to play out on the open sea. One day, as she was frolicking in her favorite sailboat, a giant wave hit her, and she drowned. Once her father found out, he had no choice but to bury her and weep *sob*. Who knew, that after Jing Wei died, she became a beautiful bird with colorful feathers, a white beak, and red feet. From that day on, Jing Wei always brought a stick, or stone with her to try (in vain) to flatten the sea. Day after day, the sea tried to convince her to stop this tedious work and give up. The sea claimed that it would never happen, everything would just sink to the bottom and cause no harm to the sea. Besides, Jing Wei could never bring something large or heavy enough to pose a threat to the almighty sea. But Jing Wei didn't listen, she still persisted. She did this every single moment of her time. Yet she may never prevail. But she continued for her lost life and the lost lives of others. This may be the reason we see so many sticks and stones and other debris appear on our beaches. It just might be the sea trying to dispose of Jing Wei's attempts to try to flatten it.
Once upon a time, there were ten suns. They each took turns going out and bringing the people warmth. These ten suns were all brothers. When one of the suns went out, The others would relax, play, and do random things suns do. Then,one day, they came up with an idea that will get them killed. Going out together. Now that may sound weird to you, but they would parch the land if the came out together. In fact, they even had restrictions for that. But nooo, they just had to make that decision, and the next morning they all went out to play baseball, just kidding, they went out and did things that suns do. This lasted for quite a while. Pretty soon our puny little lives got pretty sad and our numbers were dwindling. A "hero" Hou Yiwent to go and help us, then squinted through the blinding white light (when did they invent sunglasses?) aimed pretty well, and shot one of the suns. Boom! One Sun down. *8 booms later* Hou Yi's wife Chang E came to plead with him to not shoot th
good story!
